IT-OT convergence in critical infrastructure has increased the risk of cyberattacks. Malicious actors can exploit vulnerabilities in IT systems to compromise operational technology (OT), leading to disruptions, damage, and even safety hazards. To mitigate these threats, organizations must implement robust cybersecurity measures, including network segmentation, access controls, and incident response plans. Fostering collaboration between IT and OT teams is essential for effective risk management.
